Rise Up, Oh Heart, For There is Another Battle to Win

ok but like let’s look at this mathematically

let’s assume that “short” is less than half of the life expectancy of the average white male, which is about 75 years, so we’ll make a “short” life last for about 35 years

now, to keep this legal, we’ll assume that the short-lived gay man in question remained sexually abstinent until the age of 18. this leaves only 17 years for accumulation of sexual partners. that’s about 6205 days, give or take. in order or him to have 20,000 partners before he died, he’d need to have about 1176 partners per year, or just under 100 per month. that means that he would need to either need to have a foursome (himself + three men if that isn’t clear), a threesome and an individual encounter, or three individual encounters per day for every single day from his 18th birthday onward if he wanted to reach 20,000 by his death.

now, to put the impossibility of this into perspective, this politician claims 20,000 partners, not 20,000 instances of sexual activity, which demands that each partner be 100% new, no repeats. for reference, the estimated adult lgbt population in nebraska is just under 40,000, most likely not counting closeted individuals. assume that about half of this number is women and nonbinary individuals (all of whom are not interested in men), and the other half is men who are interested in men. the men are all allosexual and are all interested in our Short Lived Gay Male.

this means that our gay man has to fuck his way through the entire gay male population of nebraska, including time set aside for traveling, eating, and sleeping, over the course of 17 years. no job to speak of, no friends, no family, just nonstop fucking, three men a day every day, until he dies

the fantasies conservatives cook up are fucking wild

The Struggle Part Two:

• Blacks in the 1800's: I know first hand what racism is. I am a victim of a violent diaspora and genocide, like many non-european whites around the world.
• Blacks in the early 1900: I know first hand what racism is. Reconstruction of the South only led to the KKK, who stalk, torture and humiliate my family for no reason, other than or skin color. They bomb our churches, they kidnap and rape our children, they harass us to no end, even though we are a peaceful people who just want equality.
• Blacks in the 1930s: I know first hand what racism is. I have seen my family members lynched and killed for trying to vote (cough my great Uncle). I have been denied the right to education since my ancestors arrival. Ethnic Cleansing/Lynching/Genocide occurs in the south everyday at this point. I fear for my life.
• Blacks in the 1950s: I know first hand what racism is. Jim Crow laws. Segregation created by whites. Without Brown vs. Board of Eduction, I would not have any access to real schools. And they continue to lynch our people. Police invade our houses and kill our unarmed sons for no reason, and get away with it. The KKK has infiltrated our justice and legal system for hundreds of years now, ensuring that there is no legal justice for Blacks in America, ever.
• Blacks in the 60s & and 70s: I know first hand what racism is. I have been denied equal access to Colleges despite Brown vs. Board of education. I have been denied access to equal housing even if I do have the money to buy a house in the "white" part of town. I have witnessed my leaders (Martin, Malcolm, Medgar) murdered in cold blood.... simply for fighting for whats right in this world... civil rights.
• Blacks in in the 80s and 90s: I know first hand what racism is. I have witnessed the governments (Reagan) direct tactics against Black people; the contra deal, placing drugs in Black and Mexican communities. then changing laws to make sure they are placed in jail for disproportionate amounts of time. We still need to bus our children into white areas to ensure they have equal access to education. And still they will experience racism. I am denied equal access to bank loans, house loans and credit cards because of my race.
• Modern era Blacks: We experience racism til this day. We are still denied equal access to schools with the removal of Affirmative Action, we are still harassed by police frequently via racial profiling, and blacks are twice as likely to be unemployed not because of skill... but because no one will hire us. We deal with the onset of White Privilege everyday with psychotic terms as "reverse racism." Even if we are college educated, the average white person believes we are a part of gangs, on welfare or live in the "ghetto" (a jewish term). We are still discriminated against by banks, police and the government as a whole. When will this end?
• White People: I know what racism is. A black person was mean to me once. I once lost a job to a minority. I have to hear Blacks complain about racism all the time. Its not real. Its all about class now. I totally voted for Obama. Racism is over.
• Black People: .....................................................

I did this at a bus stop once. I missed my bus and the next one wasn’t supposed to come for another hour, so I had time to kill. A little girl walking with her mom said it looked like a throne for a flower princess.

killed flowers for nothing 

those are dandelions they don’t have feelings physical or emotional there are quite literally billions of them and it made a little girl happy

calm the heck down

(Also they’re an invasive species in North America so y’know like. Go wild. There will be more.)

No fun allowed ever

Before the opening of “Living for the City,” Stevie addressed the crowd:

“Can you believe that within one month, two grand juries, secret grand juries, declined to indict two policemen for the killing of two Black men? I just don’t understand that. I don’t understand why there could not have been a public trial where we would be able to hear all sides to the story. I just don’t understand. I’ll tell you what I do understand: I heard Eric Garner with my own ears, ‘I can’t breathe!”

!!!

Remember when Treyvon Martin was murdered and Stevie cancelled every show that took place in a state that still practiced the “stand your ground” law, in the middle of his tour? I’m so here for Stevie Wonder.

The good thing about being a girl is that you can sit in class and think about hardcore sex and no one can tell.
